TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a pixel circuit, a shift register unit, a gate driving circuit and a display device.

BACKGROUND

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have risen rapidly in recent years. Organic electroluminescence technology is considered as the most potential lighting and display technology to replace liquid crystal displays since it has the advantages of self-luminous characteristics, large screen visibility angle, high brightness, fast response, low driving voltage, and capability to resist shocks, and can work normally in a low temperature environment. In addition, the OLED can emit light autonomously, and its pixel circuit plays a vital role. Due to its process limitations and defects in the pixel circuit itself, bad light spots may occur. Generally, a T-aging (transistor aging) method is used to reduce current leakage of a TFT (thin film transistor). However, aging cannot solve the leakage problem of all TFTs. When an aging voltage or current is too high, it may cause the tunneling of the transistor in a GOA (Gate On Array) region or in the pixel region.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings for the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are a part, rather than all, of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All the other embodiments, obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure without exercising any inventive work, shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

Transistors used in all the embodiments of the present disclosure may be triodes, thin film transistors (TFTs), field-effect transistors, or other devices having identical characteristics. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to distinguish two electrodes of the transistor other than a control electrode from each other, one of them is referred to as a first electrode, and the other as a second electrode.

In an actual operation, when the transistor is a triode, the control electrode may be a base electrode, the first electrode may be a collector electrode, and the second electrode may be an emitter electrode; or, the control electrode may be a base electrode, the first electrode may be an emitter electrode, and the second pole may be a collector electrode.

In an actual operation, when the transistor is a thin film transistor or a field-effect transistor, the control electrode may be a gate electrode, the first electrode may be a drain electrode, and the second electrode may be a source electrode; or, the control electrode may be a gate electrode, the first electrode may be a source electrode, and the second electrode may be a drain electrode.

As shown in FIG. 1, the pixel circuit according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a light-emitting element EL, a driving circuit 11, a data writing circuit 12, and a compensation control circuit 13. The driving circuit 11 is configured to drive the light-emitting element EL to emit light. The compensation control circuit 13 is electrically connected to a first gate line Gate1, a control electrode of the driving circuit 11 and a second terminal of the driving circuit 11 for controlling the control terminal of the driving circuit 11 to be connected with the second terminal of the driving circuit 11 under the control of a first gate drive signal provided by the first gate line Gate1.

The data writing circuit 12 is electrically connected to a second gate line Gate2, a data line, and a first terminal of the driving circuit 11 for controlling a data voltage Vdata to be provided to the first terminal of the driving circuit 11 under the control of a second gate drive signal provided by the second gate line Gate2. The data line is configured to provide the data voltage Vdata.

In FIG. 1, a first control node N1 is a node coupled to the control terminal of the driving circuit 11.

In the pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the data writing circuit 12 is controlled by the second gate drive signal provided by the second gate line Gate2, and the compensation control circuit 13 is controlled by the first gate drive signal provided by the first gate line Gate1. The pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure controls a data writing transistor included in the data writing circuit 12 and a compensation control transistor included in the compensation control circuit 13 through different gate drive signals, and can thus effectively reduce current leakage occurring when the pixel circuit emits light, thereby reducing a number of weak light spots generated when the display screen emits light and decreasing the occurance of the weak light spots.

In the pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the first and second gate drive signals are inactive, a voltage value of the first gate drive signal is different from a voltage value of the second gate drive signal.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second gate drive signal being inactive means that a potential of the second gate drive signal is at an inactive level, so that the data writing transistor can be controlled to be turned off, that is, so that the data writing circuit 12 can control the data line to be disconnected from the first terminal of the driving circuit 11.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first gate drive signal being inactive means that a potential of the first gate drive signal is at an inactive level, so that the compensation control transistor can be controlled to be turned off, that is, so that the compensation control circuit 13 can control the control terminal of the driving circuit 11 to be disconnected from the second terminal of the driving circuit 11.

For example, when the data writing transistor and the compensation control transistor are P-type transistors, the inactive level is a high level. For another example, when the data writing transistor and the compensation control transistor are N-type transistors, the inactive level is a low level.

In the related art, when the pixel circuit has its own defects due to the process limitations, bad light spots may occur. Aging of TFTs cannot solve the leakage problem of all transistors. When an aging voltage or current is too high, it may cause the tunneling of the transistor in a GOA (Gate On Array) region or in the pixel region. In the related 7T1C pixel circuit, when the pixel circuit operates in a compensation phase, a data voltage is 6 volts, and a voltage written to the control terminal of the driving circuit 11 is Vdata+Vth, where Vth is a threshold voltage of a driving transistor included in the driving circuit 11. When the driving transistor is a P-type transistor, Vth may be about −2.5 volts, and the voltage written to the control terminal of the driving circuit 11 may be then about 3.5 volts. Thus, according to transfer characteristic curves of the compensation control transistor and the data writing transistor, if a gate-source voltage of the transistor is about 3 V, a leakage current of the transistor is high. Therefore, when the pixel circuit is in a light-emitting phase, N1 generates a higher leakage current through the compensation control transistor, resulting in bad light spots.

In the pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the compensation control transistor is a P-type transistor, when the potential of the first gate drive signal is at a high level, the potential of the first gate drive signal can be changed from 7 volts to 5 volts, but it is not limited thereto. When the pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure works in the compensation phase, the data voltage is 6 V, and the voltage written to the control terminal of the driving circuit 11 is Vdata+Vth, where Vth is the threshold voltage of the driving transistor included in the driving circuit 11. When the driving transistor is a P-type transistor, Vth may be about −2.5 V, and the voltage written to the control terminal of the driving circuit 11 may be then about 3.5 volts. When the pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is in the light-emitting phase, the gate-source voltage Vgs of the compensation control transistor is about 1.5 V. At this time, the leakage current of the compensation control transistor is low, which can effectively reduce the bad light spots generated at the time of light emission.

In the pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the data writing transistor is a P-type transistor, when a potential of the second gate drive signal is at a high level, the potential of the second gate drive signal may be set to 7 volts, but it is not limited thereto. At this time, the potential of the second gate drive signal needs to be maintained at 7 volts for the following reasons: since the data voltage is inputted into the first electrode of the data writing transistor, if the data voltage is 6 volts and the potential of the second gate drive signal is 5 volts, there is a risk that the data writing transistor will be turned on, resulting in poor display.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the description is made by taking each of the transistors as a P-type transistor for example, but in actual operations, each of the transistors may be an N-type transistor. For example, if the compensation control transistor is an N-type transistor, when the potentials of the first and second gate drive signals are at low levels, an absolute value of the potential of the first gate drive signal may be smaller than that of the potential of the second gate drive signal, but it is not limited thereto.

When the specific embodiment of the pixel circuit shown in FIG. 3 of the present disclosure is in operation, a display period may include a reset phase, a compensation phase, and a light-emitting phase that are sequentially arranged.

In the reset phase, a reset control signal input by the reset control terminal Reset controls T1 and T7 to be turned on, and all of T2, T3, T4, T5, and T6 to be turned off to write the initial voltage Vint to the first control node N1 and the anode of the OLED, so that T3 is turned off and the OLED does not emit light.
